Kyle Walker (32) is undoubtedly one of the best full-backs in the Premier League. But that’s not enough to play a major role in Manchester City’s star ensemble.
Trainer Pep Guardiola (52) himself explains: Walker simply does not fit into the new game system – the back three. “He can’t,” said the Spanish coach after the Englishman’s brief appearance in the Citizens’ 4-1 away win at Southampton.
“Maybe he needs some time to make it. But we don’t have time,” explained Guardiola. City, runners-up in the Premier League, are still in contention for the league title and still have a chance to win both the Champions League and a national cup (FA Cup).
Guardiola: “Kyle will always have his speed. He’ll still be the fastest in the room when he’s 60. But to keep playing in the middle you have to move smart and he doesn’t have all the qualities for that.”
Walker, on the other hand, shows character traits off the field. About a month ago, the England international is said to have dropped his pants twice in a bar. However, the police investigation was halted.
Guardiola spoke at the time of a “private matter” that had been clarified internally. The coach does not disclose whether these non-sporting heads also play a role in the relegation of Walker’s starting eleven.
National defender Manuel Akanji, who has been an integral part of City’s defense chain since his move in the summer, is benefiting from the system change. Probably also on Tuesday, when you welcome Bayern Munich to the quarter-finals of the Champions League at the Etihad Stadium. (tired)
